Well it's not dead yet, and is showing mostly signs of strength right now, so I'm thinking that it's doing a damn good job maintaining its position. Still has a $30B market cap according to coinmarketcap right now, and the only competitor is XRP and ETH, and XRP is flying high on speculation. Not much backing it up right now beyond that.

I think that bitcoin is and will be the king of crypto at least for few years to come. Hardly any other coin has the capability to take over bitcoin even with technical superiority. Bitcoin enjoys the privilege of being the first crypto currency and huge public trust. Many people have taken a huge stake in bitcoin and they will not want the price to come down so easily.

If we compare the market cap of bitcoin, it enjoys the highest numbers and the closest competitor is Ripple with half of bitcoin's market cap. So I am not worrying about any crash that may come in. I will keep believing in bitcoin.

What? Is it bitcoin dying again? How many times it was dead already? Bitcoin is like a zombie who always re-borns after death.If to talk serious, this thread will become paradise for signature spammers. Let's prepare for answers such like "Bitcoin isn't dying because blah blah nlah.

Probably just freaking out because we haven't implemented a bigger blocksize yet and the transaction queue is growing, but it doesn't really make me freak out yet because the market seems relatively comfortable with what's going on, and there's nothing that indicates Bitcoin collapsing yet. I'm still going to truck on as usual and not really worry about anything until more constructive debates are had.

The unconfirm transaction in the blockchain was really a bad thing for the bitcoin i dont thing it is a good thing wasting for almost 4 days just to confirmed a small transaction in the blockchain i guess bitcoin really need a upgrade in transaction because the bitcoin users are also increasing rapidly.

Bitcoon will survive, at least for the next few years because there are a lot of site and shops accepting bitcoin payment, although the dominance is fall down and there are many complaints about the fee and the transaction speed, but the bitcoin implementation is wider than other alt coins, so for temporary bitcoin will still be the king

yes it survived, bitcoin regained its value, right after the ransomware i have heard it fluctuated because of the ransomware am i right? , bitcoin will always be the king and the father of all alt coins. it has a many supporters and the devs are good, they doesnt keep bitcoin to be fluctuated they will making a way, many people trusted bitcoin too much.

Are you hinting that there's a possibility of a plunge? Gonna stash some money now for buying cheap later! LOL.

I would have been more apprehensive of bitcoin's survival due to the forking debate if Japan and Australia had not recognized it. We'll probably get through this just fine. Like someone here already said, there are bumps on the road.

If you got into bitcoins, that means you are willing to risk the money you invested in this. If the money has already gained more than 50% from what it was when you invested, why be worried with a small drop like 20% or so?

then it's settled, bitcoin is the king of crypto since this has been going on for at least 2 years and only the severity has increased. and this is not something that can "kill" bitcoin. it only pisses users off while miners earn a lot more money.

That Crown has been rusting for the past few months.Now BTC Dominance: 48.6% down from almost 88% in Dec 2016.It is a economic paradigm shift in the digital world. People will recognize it or be crushed by it.Their call.

just be careful when the whales you are advertising for started to dump on your head.

Bitcoin is under pressure this days and the reason is the hundred of thousands of pending transactions in the mempool. Aside from that there are movements coming from this new coin the so called TBC or the billion coins, they have announced that later this year they are going to launch the fiat exchanger to several countries across the globe. Unlike bitcoin this coin does not suffer from volatility since they are programmed to increase in value daily. If bitcoin cannot solve its recent problems then we will experience a tremendous shift from bitcoin to TBC.

Not just that but many more issues has to be solved sooner or later in order to be the number 1 cryptocurrency. Otherwise, BTC will just be an asset, nothing more and people will move on to some other altcoin for a regular transaction. Already we have seen the growth in many altcoins and its mainly because of the problems in BTC.

I still do not see a reson why bitcoin should be in danger, or under pressure.It's nearly at an all time high if I read the numbers correctly...And regarding the marKet capitalization: Number two is ripple. Somehow it should be worth nearly half of bitcoin. Ripple is a premined coin. How should that end up?Market capitalization is a number without any meaning.

Ha Ha Ha. Another BTC obituary, probably number 100000000000 so far. Oh yes, it will survive. Not only that, we ll see $2k quite soon. Once we finally get SegWit, we ll see $3k.

Just be patient and get as much coins as possible. This is a once in the lifetime opportunity.

Tell that all you want day and night as it wont matter because only the smartest take note of it.I'm begging every body I know to not just give me the money so I can buy Bitcoins but they do it themselves because they're my family and friends and I want to them rich and successful but all they do is hesitating and doubting even now. but one thing that is people like that wont buy any coins even if price goes back to $800 because some people are unable to see what a good opportunity is or maybe they just don't deserve this chance.
